Using the power of object management - including metrics and alerts - you can monitor objects, applications, and systems that must stay up and running. Some metrics and alerts are prepackaged into dashboards and policies; others you combine into custom tools

VMware Aria Operations discovers objects in your environment and makes them available to you. With the information that VMware Aria Operations provides, you can quickly access and configure any object. For example, you can determine if a datastore is connected or providing data, or you can power on a virtual machine.
